Yes. Incredibly theoretical, difficult to understand, highly abstract plans like "raising the national minimum wage".

Why did you bother mentioning the 19.2% inflation statistic if we're talking about real wages?

Your point is taken that Biden is not primarily responsible for the wage increases during his time in office, but he doesn't have the power as president to unilaterally increase the federal minimum wage. He did sign an executive order increasing the minimum wage for federal employees and contractors which, while not having a significant impact on the wage growth nationally, is a step in the right direction.

I realize your point is more that the author of this piece is a prick and he didn't spend enough time trying to understand the bad economic vibes coming from the working class, but it seems like the Biden administration did a relatively good job guiding the economy through post COVID turmoil, which he (... And Harris by proxy) did not get any credit for. Would you agree with that?

I'm a huge fan of "sneering chud" by the way. Will be forcing that into a conversation soon.

I'll have to give it another try.

I should clarify that the issues I had were podman compose being able to run unaltered compose files that worked with docker compose, many of which were fairly complicated. It may have been adequate for simpler use cases back when I tried it.

In my experience podman compose is not a sufficient replacement.

Docker compose can be used with podman via the podman socket daemon. It's very easy to get working. Give it a try.

Oops. Thanks for the correction.

I hadn't heard of quadlets. I'll have to give them a look.

We've completely transitioned from docker to podman where I work. The only pain point was podman compose being immature compared to docker compose, but turns out you can run docker compose with podman using the podman socket easily.

Some of the "misleading" statements were Harris neglecting to enumerate the reasons why a stated policy goal might not succeed, which would be incredibly unusual to include in a speech of this nature.

I guess the point the author was trying to make was that saying you "will" do something in office is a promise, and if you don't have the ability to guarantee that promise can be kept you shouldn't say that thing at all? I love me some NPR but they're really bending over backwards with some of these...

Agree. I may be misunderstanding something here, but to view votes one would have to spin up their own instance. This would prevent your average abusive moron from harassing users who down voted their post/comment.

Reminds me of this

Typically, I can read an "average" open source programmers code. One of the issues I have with C++ is the standard library source seems to be completely incomprehensible.

I recently started learning rust, and the idea of being able to look at the standard library source to understand something without having to travel through 10 layers of abstraction was incredible to me.

Remind me how to do this, please. I always forget this part...

Agree with this. I think tactfully pointing out minor issues you see can be helpful because the implementor is closer to the problem and may have just overlooked the issue and can come up with a solution easily. I've been on the giving and receiving end of this, and so long as everyone is behaving professionally, it's always been helpful.

On the "tactful" note, I'll generally say something like: "I don't have a solution, but I see problem. I don't know that this is reason enough to hold up this PR. I'll leave it up to you."
